Profile For Richard F.

Ya don’t bother coming to Canada 🇨🇦 rents insane gas is too high pay too low traffic sucks. Only good thing is hockey and beer lol

In my experience driving macks (tractor, dump truck,water truck,cement truck,garbage truck,roll off truck) macks don’t turn so you have to turn different than a volvo or anything else really

Hey 👋 I’m currently working for the city of Toronto in haulage. We load our own open top trailers with recycling and yard waste using walking floors if that’s what you’re looking for? It’s a good job and pays $33/hr. Of course it’s union and we’re taxed to death but it pays the bills lol. Check the city of Toronto website if you’re interested

Good job doing what you are paid to do 😂

Worst experience was waiting for a container burried 13 deep that took so long i made it back to my yard with 5 minutes left on my 13 hour clock lol

I’m working for my city hauling recycling, cardboard and yard waste. What is your favourite thing to haul? Walking floors can be nice or a pain in a!! Lol

I was once asked what NFI stood for and just shrugged and “No F***ing Idea”😂. I dealt with them a lot when I did security before I got into trucking

I can tell a true professional by the colour of their flip flops lol 😂

I may be new to haulage but so far it’s been really good so don’t just focus on flatbeding? It may be different in the USA but in Toronto I deliver 2-3 loads a night and get overtime after 8 hours plus night shift premium lol. Hauling garbage may smell ( my nose hasn’t worked since I was 5 lol) but it pays pretty good. I work for my city so I have full benefits and pension 😎 and union.

Hey I’m not sure what province you’re in but here in Ontario we don’t have to learn how to blindside a trailer. I had to teach myself and actually prefer going in blindsided most of the time. Just keep an eye on your tandems and imagine an invisible line of where they are going. Once you get to a certain point you can pull up then go in on your normal side if that makes sense lol
